The latest issue of Military Times, on sale today, is packed with features, eye-witness accounts and and articles.

Some key features within the February 2011 issue include:

Rommel’s Stormtroopers at the Battle of Caporetto

One of the most specular victories of the First World War took place at Caporetto in 1917. After two and a half years of trench stalemate, a change of tactics broke and routed the Italian army in three days. It was the world’s first Blitzkrieg, and saw the emergence of young German Lieutenant called Erwin Rommel.

In the 12th Century the mounted knight seemed invincible, but in the 14th century armoured. The feudal order was crumbling, a new force was rising. Michael Prestwich explores the 14th century triumph of peasant-infantry on the battlefield

Desert Triumph over Mussolini

It was one of the most unusual victories in the history of the British Army. In two months between 7 December 1940 and 7 February 1941, General Richard O’Connor’s Western Desert Force of 30,000 men advanced 500 miles into Libya and captured 130,000 Italians. Mussolini’s dream of a North African empire was shattered. Military Times analyses the campaign.

I am interested in purchasing one copy of the February 2011 issue of your magazine and having it shipped to me in the United States. Is that something that we can do? I appreciate your help in this matter.
